- Contesting near salt water, Act II -

This is the second attempt after this year's  ARRL DX CW where I placed my car
at the beach expecting the effect of close-in salt water.
http://lists.contesting.com/archives//html/3830/2013-02/msg02025.html

This time I chose a different beach since "beaming" to Europe (NW) is different
than the ARRL (NE).

And yes, salt water did the job again!
Really amazed how genuine 50W and a little whip can do.

Ten meters was back in shape and open to Europe on local Sunday afternoon
(European early morning). I made a successful running for an hour with a whip.

Ten meters, however, closed earlier at 07z and later 15m also at 10z. I was
left only with 40 and 80m to play with for the last two hours, or so I
thought.

Unfortunately I missed out on the last minute re-opening to Europe on 15m and
only noticed it in the last 20 minutes.

Anyway, as usual, it was a great contest.
Thanks for the Qs!
